Event Recap: 2025 Main Street Now Conference in Philadelphia
Last month, the Alliance team traveled to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for the 2025 Main Street Now Conference to take part in three days of learning and connecting with fellow Main Street community leaders.
Hosted by Main Street America, the organization helps to build economic power in downtowns and neighborhood commercial districts. The Alliance has been a Washington Main Street Affiliate since January 2024 - along with 77 other towns and cities utilizing the nationally proven Main Street Four-Point Approach™ to revitalize their historic downtown districts. We're excited to apply the new tools and strategies we've learned to support the neighborhood this year and beyond. Click below to learn more about WA Main Street.
